My upgrading is done except for the HD-DVD player, and I couldn't be happier! Got my new HDTV yesterday and had it, and my home theatre professionally calibrated by my good friend Jason (thanks, J, if you ever read this) and it's working flawlessly.
Living Room (Back): Polk Audio RM6751 Rears.
Living Room (Front): Polk Audio RM6751 Fronts, RM6752 Center & 42" Sony Grand WEGA 3LCD HDTV.
(Front Again) Cabinet: Yamaha HTR-5930BL 5.1/DTS, Sony DVPNS75H w/ HDMI & Upconversion, Sony PS2 Slimline w/ Component cables for Progressive Scan/HD gaming.
Cabinet: 42" Sony Grand WEGA 3LCD HDTV showing "Resident Evil" Superbit DVD via HDMI at 720p.
Living Room: My officially licensed DTS plaque, because it made me proud, lol.
Living Room: Once again, my Skyview tin sign. I'm a sucker for vintage signs.

cinemaddiction,
love the setup, love the dts sign, and love the Sony. Is that a LCD Rear Projection? I'm going to be upgrading my tv at Christmas time. I have a 30" Sony HD 16:9 tube that displays a great picture. I'm likely going to stick with another Sony tv and that one you have looks great. If it's the one I think it is, then it's very affordable...under 1500.

checkerboard, to get started it may sound silly but you first have to work out how much space you have to donate to your collection. Then go to an IKEA or Best Buy. Please try to get matching shelfs. One of the worst things is non-matching shelfs, it cheapens the whole look. The from then on go for your favourites.
tenzor, I got them of ebay, they are promo items. They were not that expensive but might be hard to get now.
onebyone, cheers mate, I think the spotlight makes it look better.

What is that black V image you have your mask sitting upon? Also, were you not able to get the Target lenticular cover?
I have a similar V setup myself, but have the Target lenticular cover and the CC lithograph as well. I'm jealous of your dominos though.

Cinemaddiction, I really dig your set up. Would you recommend your television? I was thinking of purchasing one myself. And where did you get the DTS sign? Very very cool!

MrStayPuft, couldn't get the BestBuy as I don't live in the US, btu someone has got it for me and I will get that in October. That version is from Korea and I got it from JSDVD.com. The thing underneath it is just the box it came from. I keep hearing about the lithograph but have seen no pictures. Anyone want to post?

Thanks for the compliments, again nothing special. I've had double the DVD's in my collection but I like to consolidate once a year and I ended up cutting my collection in half not long ago.

Thanks, it's Josh Holloway aka Sawyer. My uncle was Production Coordinator for the first 2 season's of LOST and happened to live next to Josh on the island. He is/was good friend's with Josh and his wife so he hooked me up. I'm hoping to get Season 2 autographed as well when it is released. He just left the show though to work in movies again.
